High-tech green products were originally meant to be sold in local markets and other distribution channels, but most of them are now sold directly to visitors at farms, Lê Quốc Dũng, a local resident, told Sài Gòn Giải Phóng (Liberated Sài Gòn) newspaper.

Hoàng Ngọc Huy, an official from the provincial Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism, said the city wanted to offer hospitality and tourism courses to farmers to help them understand tourist demand and create better services.

Launching homestay services in hydroponic farms would be another example of a new tourism service.

More agro-tourism villages are expected to open in Đà Lạt as well as other districts in Lâm Đồng Province, including Đức Trọng, Lạc Dương, and Đơn Dương, according to Nguyễn Thị Bích Ngọc, deputy director of the provincial Department of Culture, Sports, and Tourism.

Together with conventional attractions such as Love Valley, Trúc Lâm Temple, Đà Lạt Flower Garden and Cẩm Ly Waterfall, among others, the new services are expected to draw more local and international tourists to Đà Lạt and other districts in Lâm Đồng. — VNS
